Seriously....batt stat is really bad...

[ksbc616]

Ok.....I read all the batt stat related post and I tried every single ways to extend my batt life.....here how I did

1. charging the phone more than 5 times when the phone is on.

2. turned off the phone and charged 5 times until 100 %

3. turned it on again and charged more than 5 times

4. then I did batt stat by using terminal emulator

5. then I charged again while phone was on for about 3 times

6. turned off the phone and charged again for 3 times

7. then I was using my phone and I let it die by itself

8.then I fully charged the phone

theses were the steps that I followed and my batt life sucks...like when I was using internet it drops every 2~4 minutes.....even though I dont use internet just playing around with the phone It drops that quick....I am very shock that some ppl are using the phone more than an hour and still its 100% gauge....its so amazing..i really wanna do that too.....and Im currently running SC2.8 non voodoo.....do I need to use voodoo to extend my batt life????

Any suggestions will greatly greatly greatly!!!! appreciated!!!!!!!! plz help noob out...plz......

p.s.

Oh plus and im also running juice defender bc someone recommend to extend batt life not sure if it really helps....lol

Also before you go to charge your phone, go to settings, about phone, battery usage.. And see where your battery is going.

umm....for the screen it takes 80% of the batt usage

and rest are just random stuff (about 4 different ones but they were only 1~2%)

I went to the movies at 2pm with 100% charge, I listened to online radio for 20 minutes on the way there, watched the movie and now its 7:30 and my phone is at 5%... Nothing is running in the background and my phone was in the packet the whole time.

Amazing that I can play angry birds on the iphone for 4 hours during my daughters recital and still have 30% battery left and this stupid samsung pos cant be on standby for 6 hours.

How many hours did it take to perform all 8 steps?

Do you have screen brightness set to "Auto", 80% is to much for regular use.

Was having weird issues myself (signal/Internet/battery).
For ****s and giggles I gave the DL09 radio a shot on EB01.
Have had really nice results the last couple of days.
Never made it to 4 hours of screen using the Internet before.
And it still had more.


good day.

it sounds like you are both experiencing a bad battery, or a very poorly set up phone. use auto brightness or manually turn down the brightness. make sure you don't leave apps running with the screen off if you can help it, and keep your radios off when possible.

Freakin about an hour.....had to do that every single time when new rom come out but dunno if it helps or not.....

Ive been using auto brightness and I never leave apps running and plus never used radios....at all...

Yes it does help...

To do proper full battery calibration just for one single time required a minimum of 20HRs, that's what needed for 3 full charge and recharge cycles.

Reset battery stats one time at battery full reading, then discharge and recharge for 3 full complete cycles without wiping the stats and you're done calibrating (~20HRS).

You can't just check battery status. You fully charge. Then use phone normally till its almost empty. Then check.. Then you will see a proper representation of where you battery is going

ok...got quick question for you now.....you said that it is not normal to be over 80% for the display part...right?? and I just checked and its 87%......is there any way that I can decrease my display usage?? I tried to manually decreased all the way down for the brightness part and I check for 15 sec to shut my display off.....but still in 87% of display...any thoughts??

p.s.
oh and I was using my phone for 19min and my batt percentage went down to 95......and this is my second cycle to charge and die
